I know that even huge companies like Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft make mistakes. I was just saying that they've put a lot more though and resorces into getting this right than most of us realise - so we shouldn't just discount their business plan with reasoning as obvious as "They're making a bad decision because they're going to miss out on the Christmas sales", because they of course have already realised this.

Sometimes a forum full of Gamers can be smarter than a room full of monkeys Market Analysts. Sony probably had to make a choice between a solid launch and a Christmas release. Chances are, they looked at the 3DS launch and said 'We're not doing this', and delayed it.

What they probably don't realize is that this is exactly what the 3DS did. Except the 3DS had no competition that Christmas.


Anyway, they won't lose out on everything, because it can still be competitive in Japan. Which is gonna suck, because I'm tired of seeing my favorite VNs and games being ported to PSP >.>
